Jimmy hit New Enlgand Dragway Fri night,decided to try out a set of drag radials. Dingbat forgot his chute so let off early and braked to an
8.80 at 146 MPH at 28#s of boost.
He is still running stock T wheels up front with 225/60s:eek::D

Wow, that car is really making good power. So it's a RPE bullet with a 76 turbo not turned up too much. Must have somebody really scratching his head on what's holding him back now.... :eek:
 
Pretty close to yours Mike, 274 CI Stage motor,42-76 Turbo,PTC convertor, XFI(tuned by me) full weight car with A/C still intact :eek:
 
thanks guys

Thank you guys for the compliments. I am feeling good making progress just about every time out. Thank you Otto for the tuning and helping me at the track when you can. Thanks Cal for the time on the phone discussing just about anything. Both of you guys have given me a lot more than what anyone could expect. I really appreciate it.

The air was perfect friday so the car made a ton of power. I turned the ams down from where it had been. Last time I ran the car it was 95 and humid and this was the first time it has been under 80. The second pass was the one where it hooked and I got a 1.36 60' and ran the 8.8. I didn't have the chute on the car because I told the tech guy I would be mid 10's. He thought I was rather optimistic.:) When I got to the 1000' mark it felt pretty fast and I admit I lost my courage. It probably would have only been 155 or so so I am sure the time wouldn't have been too much better. The last pass I was on the two step longer and left with abot 2 lbs more boost and blew the tires away. Oh well. I did have the max boost turned back up to 33lbs. on the last pass, took off from a roll about 200' out with the ams ramping from zero and went 149mph. So I think the car was making wicked power for what it is.

Looking forward to Atco on the 16th Mike. Keep it on your calender Otto.
